Event Name: Elwood Splinters Blues Band at Mishawaka's Blue Friday
"TESTIFY!!!"

The 2009 Blue Friday was simply the best entertainment to be found in Michiana at the time! The Catman was accompanied by his perfect band, including Johnny B. Gayden doing a bombshell performance on that bass of his, with a harp solo at the end that shook the very skies with it's beautiful perfect intensity. Then P.T. and the boys took the stage and really wowed the crowd with an incredible display of musical prowess- the boys, simply, rocked. Then, big H stepped up, and the show was nothing short of a real life changing EVENT- the stars were in line, Armida had on the right earrings, H had his best Shirt, I don't know; everyone there was talking in the crowd- there was a presence, a spirit of the music that was strong as iron this night. The sound was a ten. The music was a ten. The value was a ten. The talent was a ten. The whole experience was priceless. This night serves as testament to the power of the Blues, and the celebration of our local perfect talent. Thanks, Blues Lovers. Collapse

Orquesta Caribe is one of Michiana's best kept musical secrets! What a talented group of musicians with more than 50 years of combined experience. This was a great event because you had the opportunity to learn Latin dances too! Thanks to WVPE for such a wonderful time. Collapse

Event Name: Studebaker Friday-The Kelly Jay Band
"Very bad"
Review posted by: Steve Hammer from South Bend, IN, Jun 14, 2007
Too many ukelele's and kazoo's for my taste. The drummer was pretty good though.

I don't think they "wow"'d the crowd at all. Most people weren't paying attention and the people that were paying attention could tell that it sounded like they were playing in a tin can. Next year they need to get a band that has a little more style and gets the crowd interested. Collapse
